Excellent choice. If your receiver has pre out/ main in you can loop the DSPsub. Pre out to the sub, then back to main in. The sub extracts the low frequencies and sends the rest back to the receiver. The best way to utilize the DSP sub's features. I have two of these kits, dead easy to build.
I had a complete 5.1 Tritrix system, great sound for the money. You can always spend more.

Ok so here's what I think I'm going to do, Tritrix TM and Dayton reference 8" sub with the 250w DSP plate amp. I will either make stands to connect the Tritrix to the sub or I will modify the stand I already have to accomplish the same goal. I might run the DSP lineout to my receiver and run the high pass filter at 100hz.
Decent plan or is there money spent on better components?

djg I am thinking the same thing but I am not up to speed on carts yet.
Geoff Millar Funny you mention this as I experienced it last night and had to tune the sub down. I guess what I need to be looking at is how to match a sub to a bookshelf speaker. That would give me flexibility, particularly as I am a bit of a bass head and wifey doesn't mind the shake until things start falling off the walls.

Originally posted by JRT View PostYes... The stands under stand mounted monitors take up space without delivering any bass. And with monitors pulled away from the wall behind, located suitably out into the room (suitable for most designs, but not all designs) that volume of space under and behind a monitor can be utilized by a bass bin without losing usable floor space. And utilizing that volume also helps to prevent a spouse from pushing a smaller stand mounted loudspeaker back against the wall or behind a planter, etc.

Originally posted by Kay_BI am also looking for options for high quality audio systems. I think I would like to buy floor-standing, but rather compact speakers, I don't have a lot of free space at home.

Expensive: Adelphos kit and Kairos Woofer Modules from Meniscus. That puts you at $1,000 -- without cabinet costs.

I find that on some lesser quality LPs the rumble, warp or low frequency surface noise is too audible if I have the sub turned on; turning it off still lets me hear all the music without the racket. If your speakers dig too deep, there's no option to remove that sort of noise. About 10% of our LPs have those issues.

Yellow is not for everyone, but you CAN make grills. I just don't prefer to make grills myself.
FWIW, the camera kinda washes them out a bit. The reason they are yellow based is the Kevlar material, but there are fibers of reds and oranges in the pulp mixture that really make them look fantastic.
I looked and looked and tried colors to find the perfect marriage of the cone to the cab. The Rustoleum Dark Cherry did the trick.
Again, I can't make your decision for you.
Best regards,
Wolf
